FROM informed the manufacturers, the company Tilray from Canada, which is ready to replace the damaged capsules.

In some pharmacies we heard as provided that such capsules are in dark glass bottles, while they get them in plastic containers, and that they are looking for smaller packs of 30. Price for 30 lower dosage capsules was 920 kuna, and for the same amount of a stronger concentrate 1,200 kuna. Apparently it is a small number sold to patients with prescriptions.
